After the subsill has been cleaned and the 795 sealant has been

applied, rotate the subsill into position and follow the chalk line

location marks. Firmly press the subsill into position so that the

sealant is pressed uniformly onto the condition. Locate anchors on

the "V" groove of the subsill and tighten firmly and uniformly to

anchor the subsill. Anchors should be placed 6" from each end and

16" on center. Seal and tool the anchor heads with 795 or

equivalent silicone type sealant. These are general anchor location
guidelines. Size, space, and embedment of anchors as required to

meet structural loads.
